Redefining 'tentacle rape'...

@SomeGuy:

... People actually did what was in a manga in the 70s!? O.o

*too scared to watch the video* ;_;

@bellpickle:

Ah, that would explain all the "shokku!" variety music and commentary, then.

@SomeGuy:

OMG, I know the customer guy! He's a member of a boyband in Japan! xDDDDDDDDD

It's also a video of the sushi restaurant that fillets off some sashimi from a fish and then returns the fish to the tank where it keeps swimming along even though chunks of its flesh have been sliced off.

So yeah.

@SomeGuy:

Also reminds me of that other video of the sushi restaurant that fillets off some sashimi from a fish and then returns the fish to the tank where it keeps swimming along even though chunks of its flesh have been sliced off. Supposed to show off the skill of the chef and all - which is true - but yeahhhhhhh . . . . .

My dad told me about that once, but it's a manga...

@SomeGuy:

. . . I'unno, Koreans eat baby octopus chopped into pieces but still alive.

Or they eat it in one whole bite, like in Oldboy. :D

I love how the whole time the group just sounds like even they don't know what to do with it. Like when the head first REALLY moves, the one girl goes "Uwah! That's really scary!" But y'know, in more of that fascinated, amazed way.

I really can't say how they do it either, but I can attest that fish heads ARE pretty ridiculously hardy. Ling Cod at the asian supermarket, the head'll be chopped off and placed on those "deli sliders" behind the glass. I think it's possible the head is still attached to the heart or something, but yeah. Dismembered head will move and actually kind of inch its way down the thingy with what little fin/muscle it can use.

As for the ACTUAL fish of topic, well . . . I've other things I'd rather try first.

Hm... I have no idea how the fish would still be alive. I suppose if it was a very short cook time and it wasn't killed prior to being in the frying pan, it might just have enough life left in it.

The other option is that head is animatronic. Which I sincerely hope it is. x_x

This first time I heard about this style of cooking I wanted to vomit with rage and disgust.
